TOBACCO-PIPE.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No.. 693,888, dated February 25, 1902.

' Application nea August 14, 1901. serial No.72,051. (No modem t To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, PEHR M. OLSON, a citiy zen of the United States, residing at Elsalem, in the county of Polk and State of Wisconsin, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Tobacco-Pipes; and Ido declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawing, and to the letters of reference marked thereon, kwhich forms a part of this specification.

My invention relates to improvements in tobacco-pipes; and the object ofthe invention is 'to provide a tobacco-pipe with novel, handy, and eifective means for disposing of the oil or nicotin of the tobacco smoked. Said object I attain bythe novel construction and arrangement of parts illustrated in the accompanying drawing, which is a longitudinal vertical section through a pipe embodying my improvements. y

In the drawing, A designates the mouthpiece, B the pipe-stem, and O D the bowl, of the tobacco-pipe. The bowl is thus made in two sections, screwed together at E. The only peculiarity with the upper section is that the hole F, through which the' oil runs down into the lower section, has a guard G about its lower edge to prevent the oil from following the surface of the upper part of the lower chamber, and thus get into the pipe.

In the bottom of the lower section or chamber l secure a vertical tube H, in which slides a piston I, secured on a rod J, having at its lower end a press-button K, guidingsnugly in the tube and normally held partly beyond the end of the same by a coiled spring L, encircling the' piston-rod between the piston and the closed top of the tube, above which the rod has a pin M to limit its downward may also make it thick enough to normally p close the upper apertures, as indicated by the dotted line P.

In using the pipe when the nicotinaccumulates in the lower chamber the smoker simply presses the button K upward, so that the piston gets above the apertures N, and then blows through the pipe till the nicotin has all escaped in through the apertures N and out of the apertures O, which latter are usually turned forward, and then releases the press-button, so that thespring L may force the piston downward, and thereby close either the apertures N or the tube just below the same.

Having thus described my invention, what I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Pat-v ent, is-

A tobacco-pipe having its bowl formed in an upper and a lower communicating chamber, the lower chamber having secured in its bottom a vertical tube with side apertures above and below the bottom, a downwardly-V spring-pressed piston in the tube, a rod secured in the piston and provided at the bottom end with a press-button by which the piston may be raised above all the apertures, and means limiting the downward motion of the piston, substantially as and for the purpose set forth. v

In testimony whereof I aflix my signature in presence of two witnesses.

PEHR M. OLSON.-
